GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. — The man who pleaded no contest to shooting and killing a Plainfield Township mother last year was sentenced Thursday.
Mollie Schmidt was found dead in Yenly Garcia’s apartment with a gunshot wound last summer, according to the Wyoming Department of Public Safety.
The discovery was made days before Garcia’s arrest in Mexico.
Garcia was charged with second-degree murder and felony firearm, to which he pleaded no contest.
Court officials say Garcia was sentenced to 23–50 consecutive years behind bars for the murder charge and 2 years for the felony firearm charge.
